Chapter 10: Transmigrating into a Princess for a Peaceful Marriage, She Sends All the Regent's Faction to Marry (Ten)
"Bingqing, how do you think the emperor should deal with Concubine Hui?"
The old emperor felt that his daughter had the courage and means of a superior, and planned to hand the matter over to her.
"Of course she should be executed immediately. She killed my mother, so she deserves a life for a life.
Moreover, she is not only guilty of the crime of harming concubines, but also the elixirs you have taken recently and the beauties who have slept with you were all planned by her and the regent.
The goal is to send you, the Emperor, to heaven as soon as possible so that my brother can succeed to the throne."
Hu Xiaomeng will not give this imperial concubine a chance to jump around again, and it is absolutely impossible for her to be sent to the cold palace.
"This is simply nonsense, Your Majesty, you cannot convict me based on the princess's one-sided statement. I am innocent..."
Fearing that she would be executed immediately, Concubine Hui cried and pulled the emperor's thigh to beg for mercy.
Leng Wushuang, who had recovered from the shock, kowtowed to his father and begged for mercy with tears and snot.
Hu Xiaomeng thoughtfully handed the evidence that he had collected in the past few days to his father for review.
"Okay, okay, okay, this is how my partner plotted against me.
Bingqing, I'll leave the matter of dealing with Concubine Hui to you.
Father, please go back and prepare the abdication edict. From now on, the protection of our Xuanyuan Nation will be handed over to you."
The old emperor knew that he was really old, and that his daughter did have the ability to be an emperor, so he believed that she had a way to deal with the voices that opposed her.
"Your Majesty, please don't... For the sake of my years of service, I beg you to spare my life."
Seeing the emperor getting up to walk out, Concubine Hui crawled forward in fear and begged for mercy.
She knew very well that if she really fell into Leng Bingqing's hands, she would not have a chance of survival.
Leng Wushuang also kept kowtowing and begging for mercy to his father, but he still couldn't stop the emperor from striding out.
"Royal sister, please let my mother go. She will never go against you again."
Seeing his father leave without mercy, Leng Wushuang turned to his imperial sister and begged her.
“It’s too late!”
After saying this, Hu Xiaomeng pierced Concubine Hui's chest with a sword, making sure that someone would come in to deal with her body after she died. After all, she was still a concubine, so leaving her body intact would silence Youyou.
"Mother..."
Leng Wushuang watched helplessly as his mother died in front of him, unable to do anything. He could only lie on top of her and cry bitterly, heartbroken.
The news of Concubine Hui's death quickly spread throughout the palaces. Everyone felt insecure, and those who were well-informed knew that the situation in Xuanyuan Kingdom would soon change.
Smart people know how to warn those around them: If you want to live longer, don’t provoke Princess Bingqing.
A noble concubine died in Xuanyuan Kingdom. Apart from the people in the palace, the Lin family outside the palace and the Regent's Palace who were concerned about this matter, it did not cause any ripples in the hearts of others.
However, the fact that the regent of Xuanyuan Kingdom had his martial arts skills crippled caused heated discussions not only in Xuanyuan Kingdom, but also caused an uproar in several neighboring countries.
Every country was ready to make a move, hoping that after Xuanyuan Kingdom lost its brave and victorious general regent, they would have the opportunity to take over Xuanyuan Kingdom in one fell swoop.
Other small countries did not dare to test the waters first, but Donglin, Beihan and Nanjing, three countries of comparable strength, expressed great interest and immediately sent their princes and envoys to visit.
If the eldest prince of the Western Wolf Kingdom had not told his father the terrible deeds of the eldest princess of the Xuanyuan Kingdom, the emperor of the Western Wolf Kingdom would definitely have wanted to send someone to share a piece of the pie.
After hearing everything his son said, the Emperor of Xilang Kingdom completely gave up the idea.
Before the princes and envoys from various countries arrived at the capital of Xuanyuan Kingdom, they received the news that the Emperor of Xuanyuan Kingdom would abdicate the throne to Princess Leng Bingqing, and everyone was shocked.
The most beautiful princess of Xuanyuan Kingdom will become the empress? Governing a country depends on strength, not beauty. This emperor is really incompetent and can't even pick a better successor.
Although people in other countries did not approve of this approach, they could not help but get excited. The more chaotic the Xuanyuan Kingdom was, the more beneficial it would be for them.
"Your Majesty, I have received reliable information that the princes and envoys from various countries will arrive in the capital tomorrow.
I wonder what instructions you have for me?"
Gu Feng's confidants told their master the information they had found out and asked him for instructions on the next course of action.
"Hold still for now. I want to see how the new Queen Leng Bingqing handles those wolves and tigers.
Governing a country well requires more than just physical prowess; without great talent and strategy, one is destined to be a loser."
Gu Feng, who had lost his martial arts skills, quickly cheered up and realized that he had only lost his martial arts skills, but his abilities were still there.
One day, he would trample Leng Bingqing under his feet, making her unable to live or die.
"Yes, I obey your command!"
The Regent's confidant bowed to his master and then retreated respectfully. Thinking about his previous evaluation of the Queen, he actually didn't agree with it.
Even he, a man, had to admire the fact that the empress took only three days to make all the noble families in the capital accept her as the empress.
But no matter how they investigated, they could not find out what method the empress used to make all the noble families submit to her.
It turned out that after Hu Xiaomeng executed Concubine Hui that day, she asked her people to deliver some secrets about the front and backyards of various aristocratic families that they had found out a few days ago to each mansion.
After the eldest princess's men arrived, they revealed their identities to the ministers and stated their purpose directly, allowing the ministers to choose their own path forward.
Should they expose the latest happenings in their mansion, or should they support the eldest princess as the new emperor to ascend the throne? Let everyone choose freely.
Therefore, all the ministers in the capital who were qualified to attend the court received the evidence of their crimes and the minor things that happened in their backyards that were not suitable for outsiders on the same night. Everyone really received a copy.
Everyone was shocked and panicked, unable to rest in the middle of the night, and went to the homes of their closest colleagues to discuss important matters.
When he went to court the next day, the old emperor directly announced his abdication and wanted to pass the throne to the eldest princess Leng Bingqing.
I thought I would be opposed by the ministers, but I didn't expect that everyone just looked at each other and no one spoke out in opposition.
Although the old emperor didn't know what his daughter had done, the fact that she had a unified statement was enough for him. He resigned immediately and held a ceremony to crown her emperor the next day.
In this way, Hu Xiaomeng became the youngest female emperor of Xuanyuan Kingdom.
Of course, on the day she succeeded to the throne, the Regent and the Lin family members used the excuse of illness to avoid attending.
However, whether they came or not had no impact on her. They were all unimportant people and would not affect her grand and majestic coronation ceremony at all.
